This and That!

Hey Lovies,

I'm finally back from our TG holiday. We did a good bit of cooking at my house, and my husband and I also drove the  3 and 1/2 hours to get to my family as well. Anyway, I'm back and ready for blogging!

Here we go:

Laura's Apple Blackberry Pie

5 Fuji apples
1 bag of frozen blackberries
Prepared pie crust (I made my own, but why make life harder?) and sheet of pastry dough for top crust.
1, 2 (10) cups of granulated sugar
Pinch of cinnamon

No seriously. You don't need 10 cups of granulated sugar, but it is pretty much up to your discretion. I used 1 cup and a smidge.

1. Peel your apples and cut into quarters. Core the apple by slicing down on the side of the apple through the core-bit thingy.

2. Put your apples into a saucepan with enough water to just barely cover them. Add sugar and pinch of cinnamon to taste.

3. Cook apples until soft. They'll be sort of goldeny-brown and a bit translucent around the edges. It will also be very fragrant! Yum! Turn heat to low.

4. Add your frozen blackberries to the mixture and stir gently. You don't want to completely break up the berries.

5. Pour the whole shebang into a pie crust and cover with the sheet of pastry. Trim the edges and cut a vent in the center. I do about three slashes in the top crust.

6. Cook at 450 until crust is golden brown.
